Two Ways to Get a Birth Certificate in Arkansas

The Old-Fashioned Way:

Want to learn how to get a birth certificate in Arkansas? One way to do it is by mail. You can download the official birth certificate application form that has been conveniently posted on the Arkansas Department of Health site.

A birth record can be released only to relatives of the person named on the certificate, their legally designated representatives, academic groups, and other persons “who demonstrate a right to the record.”

Certified Arkansas birth certificates cost $12; additional copies of the same record are $10 each. Please include with your application a check or money order made out to the Arkansas Department of Health in the correct amount. Cash will not be accepted.

You must send along a copy of your government-issued photo identification (e.g., driver’s license).

What You'll Need?

Arkansas requires the applicant to submit identification, a signature, and a date in order to receive a birth certificate. Identification must be government issued, such as a driver license, state ID, or passport. Instructions are below.

​**Please place your order before sending us this information. The below is listed for your reference and pre-preparation only. This information will be available again once your order is placed at which time we will need you to submit your identification, signature and date.**

Email or text message instructions (best option): Sign AND DATE a plain piece of paper, and place your government issued ID under or next to the signature. Take a photo of the ID/signature with a smartphone or camera, and email that to us or text it to us. Alternatively, you may scan and email the ID/signature to us if you'd like. PLEASE DO NOT FORGET THE DATE!

Fax instructions (less preferred): Sign AND date a plain piece of paper, and place your government issued ID under or next to the signature. Enlarge and lighten the ID by 300%, and fax to us. This is less effective than the above.
